repair advocacy

Repair advocacy is the movement that encourages people to fix their existing devices, appliances, and products instead of replacing them. It aims to promote the value of repairing to save money, reduce waste, and support local repair businesses. By advocating for better tools, fair repair policies, and accessible information, this movement empowers consumers to extend the life of their products, lessen environmental impact, and challenge restrictive repair practices imposed by manufacturers. In essence, repair advocacy promotes sustainability and consumer rights through informed and empowered repair choices.
